You Can Never Be Mine..

We sleep on the sand,
The water plays with our toes.
The stars shine above us,
While the summer breeze blows.

There’s no one else around,
The waves come to greet us again and again.
I lie in your arms,
You kiss me softly on my head.

You hold my hand,
I lie on your chest.
You smell of the ocean’s water…
Salty and warm.

You play with my hair,
While I sleep on your lap.
You guide me, you watch over me
You’re my pillow and my blanket.

You run your hands through my wet hair,
You kiss me again and again…
You hold me close
And whisper that you love me.

Everything is perfect,
Until I open my eyes and find myself on my bed.

You’re not here…you never were…
The only salty thing around me is my tear!

My hair is not wet,
There are no stars around.
The only voice I hear is my mums.

I realize it was all another dream
Which I know can never come true

Cause just yesterday,
You proposed to my best friend
On the very beach
I wanted to be with you!

    Juhi,

    I was glued to the magical weaving of words and on reading the last stanza I was shattered. OMG. Pray that you never face such sadness ever ever in your life.

    Take care

    me likes...
    very nicely written and it has all the ingredients...

    love and betrayal
    some are good friends but terrible loves ...that's life.
    It's like...
    a burned bridge, a flooded street
    Caught off guard, don't claim defeat
    you could drown here in this love
    If you can't find a way off it
    ...

    P.S.
    -----
    Some things should never begin!!

picture from:  here They say that we suddenly grow up at a point, without realizing.  We suddenly stop doing what we always have been doing and we take a break to think. And then we change the gears and let go of all the stupidity.  We may not like it in the beginning, but this break is required. We need to sort ourselves out, and I think that this is what I’ve been trying to do from the past few weeks. I’ve heard that college changes people. Tomboyish girls start to wear make up, and the nerds start to bunk classes, while the desperate ones are all over each other. No hard feelings, but this is what happens. I’ve been thinking about which category I lie in. And honestly, I’m clueless. While people around me are too busy attending some party or the other, or while uploading pictures on  social networking sites, I’ve been so lost because none of these things seem appealing to me any longer. I don’t find the need of going to the washroom eve...

"Trust me. There's no way that I can sing in front of you." "Well, I don't care. You just have to!" I thrust the guitar into his hands and sit down in front of him. "You won't ever give up now, will you?" He sighs as he strikes a chord. "We got this afternoon You've got this room for two.." His eyes are shut, his voice mesmerizing. Soft..calm..just beautiful. His fingers gently move, the rhythm comes to him so naturally. I just sit and listen. And that's all I want to do. "You were wonderful." I say, once he stops. He laughs. "Your body is my wonderland." He kisses my shoulders gently. "You should really try for the competition, you know. You'll get through." "You don't get it Lucy. I can't sing in front of people." He snaps. "Just close your eyes and think that you're singing to me. Do it for me. Please.." I look into his eyes and hold on to his gaze. "Th...

Unfaithful

“I don’t wanna hurt him anymore, I don’t wanna take away his life... I don’t wanna be a murderer.” I lie on the crumpled bed sheet, alone. Naked. I close my eyes, tighten my fist, and try to stop the guilt from growing, from eating me up. It wasn’t the first time. I should have been accustomed to all of this by now, but no I’m not. I don’t think I ever will…yet I continue to do so, and yet I lie in his arms, and crave for him when he’s not around. The pictures appear in my mind. Flash backs. They always do after he leaves. And I always try to shut them from my mind. But it’s next to impossible. No, I don’t love him. I already have a lover, and he? He already has a family. It’s just the craving, the desperation, and the intense longing of being loved. He caresses me, he’s firm, strong, and I easily melt inside him. When he’s besides me, he is all I see. I don’t think about anything else. The world just seems beautiful when we lie next to each other, exhausted. And then, he leaves...
